Full Breakdown
Miami-Dade County Code § 2-98.3 defines 'motorized scooter' and 'micromobility device' (capped at 20 mph on level ground) and regulates their use specifically on Crandon Boulevard, the corridor linking the Village of Key Biscayne to Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park. Riders are limited to 20 mph on County-owned right-of-way, must stay in bike lanes or on streets posted 30 mph or under, and cannot ride on sidewalks except to reach designated parking. Devices cannot be parked on the roadway, block park entrances, or leave less than 3 feet of sidewalk clearance. The rule only takes effect once Key Biscayne signs an interlocal enforcement agreement with the County, which can also add its own restrictions.
Violations & Fines
Violations are punishable under Chapter 8CC's civil citation schedule and Section 1-5's general penalty, up to a $500 fine or 60 days in jail, with each day of continued violation counted as a separate offense.
